    are there any slim flip phones?

    yeah, i read that. but look at this quote from Eldar's u600 review:

    there are no u600's that have this feature.

    he gets things wrong sometimes. he can only safely report what he's heard and what the manufacturers tell him.

    are there any slim flip phones?

    Hey GeminiIII, Here's an interesting quote from a recently published article on mobile-review, "The situation with the Sony Ericsson S500i buttons had been hard to foresee - it was just recently when we learned that the green paint reacted with the adhesive used for sticking the buttons onto the casing. This way, because of the chemical reaction the base of the keys simply dissolved. At the same time, the yellow edition is free of such defects."

    Just food for thought...

    The Full article is Here: http://www.mobile-review.com/articles/2007/brak-in-phones-en.shtml

    obviously...my comment was more of sarcasm and jest than seriousness...as noted by this response


    my apologies if it was not apparent enough for you...next time i will be sure to include a laymen's translation... (no offense of course...)

    Search for Helio Fin or go to Helios site. It's the thinnest flip in the US and has a 3MP camera and other nice specs.

    are there any slim flip phones?

    ok but thats just the s500 and just ONE phone...plus no one else has reported this...so obviously its not as wide spread...which one would then be forced to conclude that is indeed not a design problem :P muahahahaha I WIN! jk

    are there any slim flip phones?

    1st off...if you've ever taken any entry critical thinking class you would know that simply because someone says somethings is doesnt make it true

    2ndly...althought possible is it not neccissarily a design problem...the flaw of the argument of it not cracking in the box is that the chemical could simply weaken the plastic so that it is more easily broken with use later

    3rdly...neither me, you or the author of the post are chemists...therefore NON of us can assume to know whether or not it was due to a chemical reaction

    4thly i read the ENTIRE page of the link you provided and again...no mention of any yellow s500 or w580 keypads being affected and definately no pictures as proof...
